Picture the scene
Crowds circle over 2010
The robots are on tour again
In separate transport stay together for their art
A new album written continents apart
Flash back ten years back to the start
Back to the start
Back to the start
Gonna get you bitch
Gonna get you, bitch
Ah, shut up!
Shut up!
Shut up,
Fuck you
You are shit
You stink of it

You’re being pathetic
You’re gonna regret it
I’m hating you lately
I want my 3.80
You’re pulling that face in my space,
Same noises each day, rewind and press play
(Rewind and press play)
(Rewind and press play)

You’re being pathetic
You’re gonna regret it
I’m hating you lately
I want my 3.80
You’re pulling that face in my space,
Same noises each day, rewind and press play
(Rewind and press play)
(Rewind and press play)

You always
You never
You always
You never
You always, you never
You always, you never.

You always
You never
You always
You never
You always, you never
You always, you never.

Can you not
Can’t you stop
Can you not
Can’t you stop! Stop!
Can you not
Can’t you stop
Can you not
Can’t you stop! Stop!

You’re being pathetic
You’re gonna regret it
I’m hating you lately
I want my 3.80
You’re pulling that face in my space,
Same noises each day, rewind and press play
(Rewind and press play)
(Rewind and press play)

You always
You never
You always
You never
You always, you never
You always, you never.

You always
You never
You always
You never
You always, you never
You always, you never.

Can you not
Can’t you stop
Can you not
Can’t you stop! Stop!
Can you not
Can’t you stop
Can you not
Can’t you stop! Stop!

Can’t you stop? Stop!

Ego a go-go
Headaches
We gotta act more pro
Yeah
Just think of the fans
Stop the soap
Let’s break up
Make up
If we split we’re just another ex-band
If you want it to last
Back to the start
Back to the start
If you want it to last
Back to the start
Back to the start
Back to the start
Back to the start
If you want it to last
Back to the start
Back to the start
Back to the start
If you want it to last.

    General Comment:i think its just a joke - like elektrotrash type irony, almost mocking themselves! personally i don't think there's much to look into on this song! AMAZING song though!

    General Comment:I agree with HotGossip....many people have let things like this, such as arguments with a friend, become quite nasty and dirty and at least the girls had the character to turn it into something creative and productive! ah, i love them ♥

    General Comment:There's an interview with them talking about this song.
    They said they'd had a gig, but it ended up being cancelled, so they were walking along Hollywood boulovard and got in a fight with each other.
    Then they said it was a good experience because it made a song, I'm guessing this is the song?

    General Comment:I Think Neota's idea is pretty much what the songs about. But instead the arguments are not of those in 10 years but actually whats happening now...and how that relates to the following 10 years....

    If you want it to last, back to the start back to the start...
    etc etc

    General Comment:when its flash back to the strt it could be refering to the former band they were in, before they split up and became robots in disguise

    General Comment:They say at the beginning 'Picture the scene, crowds circle over 2010...flash back ten years, back to the start' The song was written in 2000 - does the song in fact deal with not current arguments but what might happen in 10 years?

    General Comment:like 3.80 is the minimum wage over here. and although she hates her co-worker, she's in it for the money AND for the fans.

    thats my interpretation anyway.
